this is one hell of a great song. no one can nail Bill Withers. the instrumentals are fantastic, just wish Withers had sung on this one. Can't have everything.
@StevenCharlesJazz Either you don't know who the singer is, or you don't care. Well, in any case, up to you. One only hears what one wants to hear. Peace.
Back in my college days I listened to Crusaders very much.. all of my funk guitar style is from them...and kids wonder where I learned them from...I say from THE MASTERS THE CRUSADERS.....Rhapsody In Blue which this tune is from is a very rare CD Japanese import only...one of my all time albums then I had it on LP.
Seeing Stix Hooper on drums gives you the chills.....without him they never sounded the same.
OMG wow. Thank god for youtube. I just can't believe that there are so many good music in this world and if it wasn't for you-tube we would never get to hear them.
That guy sounds like bill withers but can't seem to sign like him.LOL
People please go and purchase anything from The Crusaders. I promise you will love it. To many to name but three of my favorites are Spiral, Marcella's Dream & Chain Reaction.

Classic song, and although imho nobody surpassed Bill Wither's very distinctive version, this one is awesome too!

Great stuff but there are better versions. This one is too fast. It sounds better a bit slower. You can develop it better.

One of the best songs ever but the vocals were sadly mediocre on this live version. =(

Great song, but I'm not wild about the vocals on this...
You gotta come strong to cover Bill Whithers' take.
But the Crusaders are always great!
